Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A system for interacting with digital signage, the system comprising: an identification module to: analyze a navigation route of a vehicle to identify a set of roadside digital signage along the navigation route; and identify, at an onboard system in the vehicle, a first roadside digital signage of the set of roadside digital signage, the first roadside digital signage having first data content comprising multiple gigabytes; a communication module to: receive the first data content; and receive a first option to perform a first action related to the first content; and a presentation module to display the first option via the onboard system.

2

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein to identify the first roadside digital signage, the identification module is to: receive an indication of a gesture of an occupant in the vehicle; and determine that the gesture marks the first roadside digital signage.

3

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the gesture comprises a pointing action.

4

4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the identification module is to: query the first roadside digital signage marked by the gesture for an identification; and receive the identification.

5

5. The system of claim 4 , wherein to receive the first option to perform the first action related to the first content, the identification module is to: query a signage service with the identification for options corresponding to the first digital signage identified by the identification; and receive the options corresponding to the first digital signage from the signage service, the first option as one of the options.

6

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein to identify the first roadside digital signage, the identification module is to: receive a beacon signal from the first roadside digital signage; and obtain an identification of the first roadside digital signage from the beacon signal.

7

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first option to perform the first action related to the first content includes one of: an option to contact a party associated with the content, an option to set a navigation route to travel to a location associated with the content, or an option to obtain additional information related to the content.

8

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein to display the first option via the onboard system, the presentation module is to: display the first option via an in-dash display in the vehicle.

9

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein to display the first option via the onboard system, the presentation module is to: cause the display of the first option via a personal mobile device.

10

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the personal mobile device includes one of a smartphone, a wearable device, or a portable computer.

11

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the identification module is to identify, at the onboard system in a vehicle, a second roadside digital signage, the second roadside digital signage located proximate to the first roadside digital signage and the second roadside digital signage having second content; wherein the communication module is to receive an second option to perform a second action related to the second content; and wherein the presentation module is to display the first option and the second option via the onboard system.

12

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein to display the first option and the second option via the onboard system, the presentation module is to: display the first option and the second option in a scrollable list.

13

13. A method of interacting with digital signage, the method comprising: analyzing a navigation route of a vehicle to identify a set of roadside digital signage along the navigation route; identifying, at an onboard system in the vehicle, a first roadside digital signage of the set of roadside digital signage, the first roadside digital signage having first data content comprising multiple gigabytes; receiving the first data content; receiving a first option to perform a first action related to the first content; and displaying the first option via the onboard system.

14

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein identifying the first roadside digital signage comprises: receiving an indication of a gesture of an occupant in the vehicle; and determining that the gesture marks the first roadside digital signage.

15

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the gesture comprises a pointing action.

16

16. The method of claim 14 , further comprising: querying the first roadside digital signage marked by the gesture for an identification; and receiving the identification.

17

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein receiving the first option to perform the first action related to the first content comprises: querying a signage service with the identification for options available from the first digital signage identified by the identification; and receiving the options corresponding to the first digital signage from the signage service, the first option as one of the options.

18

18. The method of claim 13 , wherein identifying the first roadside digital signage comprises: receiving a beacon signal from the first roadside digital signage; and obtaining an identification of the first roadside digital signage from the beacon signal.

19

19. The method of claim 13 , wherein the first option to perform the first action related to the first content includes one of: an option to contact a party associated with the content, an option to set a navigation route to travel to a location associated with the content, or an option to obtain additional information related to the content.

20

20. At least one machine-readable medium including instructions for interacting with digital signage, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to: analyze a navigation route of a vehicle to identify a set of roadside digital signage along the navigation route; identify, at an onboard system in the vehicle, a first roadside digital signage of the set of roadside digital signage, the first roadside digital signage having first data content comprising multiple gigabytes; receive the first data content; receive a first option to perform a first action related to the first content; and display the first option via the onboard system.

21

21. The at least one machine-readable medium of claim 20 , wherein the instructions to display the first option via the onboard system comprise instructions to: display the first option via an in-dash display in the vehicle.

22

22. The at least one machine-readable medium of claim 20 , wherein the instructions to displaying the first option via the onboard system comprise instructions to: display the first option via a personal mobile device.

23

23. The at least one machine-readable medium of claim 20 , further comprising instructions to: identify, at the onboard system in a vehicle, a second roadside digital signage, the second roadside digital signage located proximate to the first roadside digital signage and the second roadside digital signage having second content; receive an second option to perform a second action related to the second content; and display the first option and the second option via the onboard system.
